2 Why you should listen to this talk Research is communication Think: how often have you said I m really glad I went to that talk Some simple, actionable ideas that can make your talks much better You will have more fun A research talk gives you access to the world s most priceless commodity: the time and attention of other people. Don t waste it!

3

4 The purpose of your talk is not: To impress your audience with your brainpower To tell them everything you know about your topic To present all the technical details

5 The purpose of your talk is: To give your audience an intuitive feel for your idea To make them foam at the mouth with eagerness to read your paper To engage, excite, provoke them To make them glad they came

6

7 Your audience The audience you would like Have read all your earlier papers Thoroughly understand all the relevant theory of cartesian closed endomorphic bifunctors Are all agog to hear about the latest developments in your work Are fresh, alert, and ready for action

8 Your actual audience The audience you get Have never heard of you Have heard of bifunctors, but wish they hadn t Have just had lunch and are ready for a doze Your mission is to WAKE THEM UP and make them glad they did

9

10 1 Motivation (20%) 2 Your key idea (80%) 3 There is no 3

11 Motivation You have two minutes to engage your audience before they start to doze. They are thinking Why should I tune into this talk? What is the problem? Why is it an interesting problem? Does this talk describe a worthwhile advance?

12 Motivation You have 2 minutes to answer these questions. Don t waste those 2 minutes. Example: Java class files are large (brief figures), and get sent over the network. Can we use languageaware compression to shrink them? Yes, and I m going to show you how we can do 50% better than the best generic zipping technology Example: Synchronisation errors in concurrent programs are a nightmare to find. I m going to show you a type system that finds many such errors at compile time.

13 Your key idea If the audience remembers only one thing from your talk, what should it be? You must identify a key idea. What I did this summer is No Good. Be specific. Don t leave your audience to figure it out for themselves. Be absolutely specific. Say If you remember nothing else, remember this. Organise your talk around this specific goal. Ruthlessly prune material that is irrelevant to this goal.

14 Narrow, deep beats wide, shallow Avoid shallow overviews at all costs Cut to the chase: the technical meat It s ok to cover only part of your paper YES!

15 Examples are your main weapon To motivate the work To convey the basic intuition To illustrate The Idea in action To show extreme cases To highlight shortcomings When time is short, omit the general case, not the example.

16 Exceptions in Haskell? Exceptions are to do with control flow. There is no control flow in a lazy functional program. Data Maybe a = nothing Just a Lookup : : Name -> Dictionary -> Maybe Address Often this is Just The Right Thing [Spivey 1990, Wadler list of successes ]

17

18

19 No outline! Outline of my talk : conveys near zero information at the start of your talk. Worse, since your audience only gives you 2 minutes before dozing, you ve just lost them But maybe put up an outline for orientation after your motivation and signposts at pause points during the talk

20

21 Do not present related work But You absolutely must know the related work; respond readily to questions Acknowledge co-authors (title slide), and pre-cursors (as you go along) Praise the opposition

22

23 Omit technical details Even though every line is drenched in your blood and sweat, dense clouds of notation will send your audience to sleep Present specific aspects only; refer to the paper for the details By all means have backup slides to use in response to questions

24

25 enthusiasm!

26 Enthusiasm If you do not seem excited by your idea, why should the audience be? Enthusiasm makes people dramatically more receptive It gets you loosened up, breathing, moving around

27 Write your slides the night before ( or at least, polish it then) Your talk absolutely must be fresh in your mind Ideas will occur to you during the conference, as you obsess on your talk during other people s presentations

28 Do not apologise I didn t have time to prepare this talk properly My computer broke down, so I don t have the results I expected I don t have time to tell you about this I don t feel qualified to address this audience

29 The jelly effect If you are anything like me, you will experience apparently severe pre-talk symptoms Inability to breathe Inability to stand up (legs give way) Inability to operate brain

30 What to do about it You are not a wimp. Everyone feels this way. Deep breathing during previous talk Script your first few sentences precisely (=> no brain required) Move around a lot, use large gestures, wave your arms, stand on chairs Go to the loo first

31 Being seen Face the audience, not the screen Know your material Put your laptop in front of you, screen towards you Don t point much, but when you do, point at the screen, not at your laptop

32 Being heard Speak to someone at the back of the room, even if you have a microphone on Make eye contact; identify a nodder, and speak to him or her (better still, more than one) Watch audience for questions

33 Questions Questions are not a problem. Questions are a golden golden golden opportunity to connect with your audience. Specifically encourage questions during your talk: pause briefly now and then, ask for questions Be prepared to truncate your talk if you run out of time. Better to connect, and not to present all your material

34 Being a good audience member Eye contact with speaker Nod frequently Ask questions.

35 Presenting your slides Use a wireless presenter gizmo Test that your laptop works with the projector, in advance Laptops break: leave a backup copy on the web; bring a backup copy on a disk or USB key

36 Presenting your slides A very annoying technique your points one by one by one, unless there is a punch line

37 Presenting your slides Use animation effects very very very very very very very sparingly

38 Finishing Absolutely without fail, finish on time. Audiences get restive and essentially stop listening when your time is up. Continuing is very counter productive Simply truncate and conclude Do not say would you like me to go on? (it s hard to say no thanks )

39 Conclusion: there is hope The general standard is often low. You don t have to be outstanding to stand out. You will attend 50x as many talks as you give. Watch other people s talks intelligently, and pick up ideas for what to do and what to avoid.

40 Your paper = the beef Your talk = the beef advertisement Do not confuse the two.

41 Do it! Do it! Do it! Write a paper, and give a talk, about any idea, no matter how weedy and insignificant it may seem to you. Good papers and talks are a fundamental part of research excellence Invest time Learn skills Practice

42 Research is communication The greatest ideas are worthless if you keep them to yourself. Your papers and talks Crystalise your ideas Communicate them to others Get feedback Build relationships (And garner research brownie points)
